The benefits of donation

    We've heard the complaints about the posting requirements for Tilted Back, and we're still playing with the permissions and policy. But I'm happy to announce that effective immediately, all donors will receive a year's access to Tilted Back with no posting requirements.

    If you make a donation, you won't get instant access. A staff member still has to physically go in and toggle on the donor key. If you can't or won't donate, you can still get access via the posting requirements, so this isn't an extortion attempt [*cough*2003*cough, cough*].

    There will be other benefits for donors down the road, but we're still trying to decide exactly what those will look like.

    Feel free to ask questions or make comments. This thread will stay open, and we'll make similar announcements here down the road.

    Not a bad idea IMO.

    One other thought, if possible adjust the posting requirement to the last 5-7 days. There have been times I clicked early in the AM and couldn't access those areas though I had dozens of posts in the few days prior.

    My first impulse upon reading this was to yell: "TAKE MY MONEY, YOU SILLY MAN!" But why?

    Oooh, I got paid yesterday. Guess I should cough up some more moolah for all you sexy people.

    I'm not exactly sure. The happy posting bot is the arbiter. Apparently he drinks like Glory's Sun and gets a little wild from time to time. Hard to find good help these days.

    Yet more proof for my theory that Happy Posting Bot has an ancient evil in his circuitry, and that he's just waiting for the day when he can flay us all alive.

    One doesn't find the posting bot; the posting bot finds you.

    None of you understand the true purpose of my servant, known to mere mortals as the happy posting bot? Sure he posts, but why is he so happy? If you only knew...

    Nobody's really sure where he came from. We showed up and he was right there welcoming us. Even Cyn. Seems like he's been around forever.

    The Happy Posting Bot is like a cross between Edward Scissorhands, Bender, and the clown thing from Stephen King's It.

    Is this retroactive? I've been making an attempt to donate some every month, but it would be nice if I didn't have to wait till next month.
